#4: Re: Royal Netherlands Army days 2012 Author: L.Delsing, Posted: Sun Nov 13, 2011 8:26 pm ---- Battle tanks will be one Leopard 2A6, which is still in use as balast for training low loader drivers and some Leopard 1s
There are still some Buffel recovery tanks and the infantry got the Leopard 1 recovery tank since they have CV90s.
There always some Apaches, Cougars and Chinooks for the demonstrations on the Oirschotse Heath and at the nearby Eindhoven Air Base is a HQ for the European Airlift Wing which gives sometimes nice military visitors. At the friday you make a good change to see a IL-76.
